Founded in 1839, Mount Allison is a small
residential liberal arts and science university
located on the east coast of Canada. Our 2,500
students come from across Canada, the U.S.,
and 50 other countries. They are attracted by
the high ranking and high quality immersive
style of learning. The residence system has
1,260 beds in 12 buildings with construction
dates ranging from 1893 to 2004. Room styles
are double, single, and single en-suites where
two rooms share a bathroom. The 10-year
housing renewal plan includes renovations
and upgrades to existing buildings with no new
construction. Housing is run as an auxiliary
funded only by accommodation and meal plan
fees, with an annual budget of a little more
than $12 million and a renovation budget of
$3.2 million. Most students live two years on
campus and benefit from a vibrant residence
life program that supports their academic and
personal growth. Pictured is Campbell Hall,
built in 2004, which has 216 beds and is clad
with locally quarried sandstone.
